Jacob and Christian were so excited to go to the Texas State Fair. Little did they know when they walked in the gate that they would get to see Anubis! Jacob has a book on Egypt, has read it backwards and forwards, and was thoroughly enthralled with this kind of greeting to the fair! He cannot wait till we go to the King Tut exhibit at the Dallas Museum of Art.
After a few rides we walked around to see other shows and exhibits. It was about time for the Backyard Circus, so we found a spot to watch. The boys' next big surprise was getting picked for the circus! Jacob AND Mike were picked for the Human Cannonball stunt. Christian was picked to be a tiger during the Lions and Tigers Show (Yes, that is him in the orange shirt and the tiger head). While another boy dressed as the Lion Tamer cracked the whip, the "Tigers" had to roll over, sit up and roar. Meanwhile, Mike and Jacob disappear. Another boy, dressed as the Human Cannonball, gets inside to be blasted....and POOOF....From the back appear Mike carrying Jacob overhead - He caught the Human Cannonball and brought him back on stage!!!!! What a circus! (now can't you see me, the PROUD Mom and Wife, saying those are my boys! HA! Of course I would have loved to have had my good camera with me for such opportune moments.)
Wow, what fun! We of course had to go to the automobile building. Jacob fell in love with the 2010 Camaro! Can't you just see where we are headed when he is 16? HA! It was a good family day for all of us to share.
